Pulsed DPSS Lasers

Pulsed LasersWhat are Pulsed DPSS Lasers?

Pulsed DPSS Lasers use laser diodes as the pump light (pump source) for a laser gain medium. Unlike CW lasers that emit a continuous beam of energy, pulsed lasers utilize pulse generation techniques like mode-locking or q-switching to produce high peak power or high energy pulses with a lower duty cycle by storing energy within the cavity and releasing it in short pulses. Pulsed DPSS Lasers take advantage of the relatively narrow spectral linewidth of diode lasers in conjunction with their high brightness in order to maximize absorption and therefore increase efficiency. Pulsed DPSS lasers are also far more compact and require less maintenance than flash lamp-pumped lasers. DPSS Lasers can also benefit from second, third, fourth, and even fifth harmonic generation, allowing wavelengths from the UV to the IR spectral regions.
